A total of 15 teams work on projects for government agencies, banking, mobile services and the Internet Of Things (IoT) technology. At the core of our business is the development of software which we configure and embed in a multitude of different devices and form factors. These include many kinds of payment cards, SIM cards, travel passes, secure eBanking devices, authentication tokens, machine identification modules (MIM), and secure ID documents including ePassports, eID and eHealth cards, as well as eDriving licenses. Because of the international environment surrounding us every day, it comes as no surprise that English is our official corporate language.

We're looking for a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) who thrives in both application-level problem-solving and infrastructure design. This role is about more than just keeping systems running — it's about applying software engineering practices to make our ODC applications more reliable, scalable, and performant in a cloud-native, production-grade environment.

What You'll Do:

As part of the SRE team within Thales ODC, you'll be instrumental in bridging the gap between application development and operations. You will:

  • Work in a DevOps environment, supporting ODC products running on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), with a focus on applying SRE principles for reliability and automation.
  • Take ownership of both applications and infrastructure, ensuring the availability, performance, and scalability of our cloud-based services.
  • Develop and maintain Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) and automation pipelines using tools like Terraform, Helm, and GitLab CI/CD.
  • Collaborate with development teams to enhance product reliability using a "you build it, you run it" mindset.
  • Act as a key technical voice during Change Advisory Board (CAB) reviews for high-impact changes, providing Tier II expertise.
  • Manage real-time system monitoring and drive continuous improvements in observability and alerting.
  • Support the end-to-end deployment of ODC applications in the cloud — from design and configuration to rollout and performance tuning.
  • Perform operational readiness reviews and shape product roadmaps with a focus on stability and scalability.
  • Guide technical documentation, incident response processes, and SLA compliance across tiers.
  • Participate in on-call support rotations (24/7) to ensure production systems remain resilient.
What You Bring:
  • A degree in Computer Science or a related technical field.
  • 4+ years of experience with application deployment, system operations, and cloud infrastructure.
  • Proficiency with:
    • GCP services and Kubernetes in production environments
    • Automation tools like GitLab, Terraform, Helm
    • Linux systems, networking, and HTTP(S)/TCP/IP protocols
    • Scripting languages like Shell or Python
  • Experience with Agile methodologies and a DevOps/SRE mindset.
  • A strong understanding of CI/CD pipelines, system integration, and monitoring tools.
  • Ability to translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions.

Preferred qualifications:

  • GCP and/or Kubernetes certifications
  • Experience in the Telecom domain or with eSIM technologies
  • Familiarity with Scrum, incident management, and service delivery frameworks
